The Youth

THE YOUTH


For a short time in 1995, the Legend of Zelda series released a heavily cut down version of the original game on Satellaview, with four episodes releasing across four weeks, starring a generic boy or girl character as your avatar instead of Link.

These characters never got names, though they are referred as “the youth” or “the mysterious youth” in their games’ story, so that’s what I’m going with. It’s better than calling them “BS Zelda Boy and BS Zelda Girl.” These two characters would reappear in the sequel Ancient Stone Tablets, this time based on A Link to the Past.

As fighters, the two youths will act as color swaps to each other. The girl’s appearance is a little bit more distinct, so I put her as the base. Their moveset will pull heavily from those two games their games were based on, mostly using items that might have fallen through the cracks on other movesets.

Likelihood rating: Never gonna happen.
